This package provides module declarations for some of the most common GJS gir modules (see Gnome JavaScript). With it you will get fully typed imports for the following modules:

  • gi://Atk?version=1.0
  • gi://GLib?version=2.0
  • gi://GModule?version=2.0
  • gi://GObject?version=2.0
  • gi://Gdk?version=3.0
  • gi://Gdk?version=4.0
  • gi://GdkPixbuf?version=2.0
  • gi://Gio?version=2.0
  • gi://Graphene?version=1.0
  • gi://Gsk?version=4.0
  • gi://Gtk?version=3.0
  • gi://Gtk?version=4.0
  • gi://HarfBuzz?version=0.0
  • gi://Pango?version=1.0
  • gi://PangoCairo?version=1.0
  • gi://Soup?version=2.4
  • gi://Soup?version=3.0
  • gi://cairo?version=1.0
  • gi://freetype2?version=2.0
  • gi://xlib?version=2.0

Additionally a module declaration for system module is included as well as some global functions and variables like globalThis.print(), globalThis.imports, globalThis.pkg etc.

Use

  1. Install this package via npm or yarn

  2. Add this package to the tsconfig.json typeRoots:

    {
      "compilerOptions": {
        "typeRoots": ["node_modules/gjs-esm-types", "node_modules/@types"]
      }
    }
  3. gi imports should now be correctly typed:

    import Gtk from "gi://Gtk?version=3.0";
    
    const window = new Gtk.Window();
    // Resolved Type - const window: Gtk.Window;

Imports without version specifier

This package only provides module declarations for imports with a version specifier. If you want your imports to not include the version, add a .d.ts file in your project and define the module declarations in there, similarly to this:

Example 1 - Gtk

declare module "gi://Gtk" {
  import Gtk from "gi://Gtk?version=4.0";
  export default Gtk;
}

Example 2 - GLib

declare module "gi://GLib" {
  import GLib from "gi://GLib?version=2.0";
  export default GLib;
}

Example 3 - Soup

declare module "gi://Soup" {
  import Soup from "gi://Soup?version=2.4";
  export default Soup;
}
